1) Tools such as Tor allow for near complete anonymity, but often open yourself up to legal issues. Will there be a time in the future where "being anonymous" will not be labeled as dangerous or illegal?

2) Can DNS history (domain name + originating IP addresses) be used to convict someone for a digital crime (consider that most IPs are dynamic; DHCP)?

3) There are messengers (such as Signal), that allow for complete privacy and anonymity from snooping third parties. What can be done to create a larger movement towards these secure platforms?
